Pukes find "civil liberties" shirts "obscene" at Bush rally

Civil liberties T-shirts trigger 'alarm'

A Bush rally volunteer reacts to three women's attire and tosses them out.

Saturday, October 16, 2004

JEFF MAPES (the Oregonian)

Janet Voorhies said she was curious to see how Republicans would react when she and two other women showed up at President Bush's Central Point rally wearing T-shirts stating "Protect Our Civil Liberties."

She got her answer before the president even spoke. The three women were ejected from the rally and escorted from the Jackson County Fairgrounds by state police officers who warned them they would be arrested if they tried to return.

Republican officials said they weren't exactly sure why a volunteer at the event demanded that the three women leave the rally. But a Bush campaign spokesman, Tracey Schmitt, said: "It is not the position of the campaign that wearing a T-shirt that says protect civil liberties is enough to conclude someone is disruptive."

. . .

She said this volunteer pointed to her shirt and said it was "obscene."
